OUGD502 - A Design Presence: Initial Ideas

I began thinking of ways I could expand my personal branding, as I had already done a logo and business card a few months ago when I started networking. I want to keep the same logo, but perhaps change the business card.

I thought of collateral I could produce:

• Business cards - to give to potential employers at networking events and for clients to contact me and look at my work
• Letterhead - to send letters to clients and other necessary people
• Envelope - to put the letterhead in, and show it is my brand from the outside
• CD - as I do a lot of websites, it could be helpful to put them onto a CD so that people can see how they work
• CD Case - to protect the CD and let people know it is my brand
• Pens - I always lose pens so maybe if I had my own I would look after it more
• Invoice - to charge clients!
• Email footer - to look professional when I took to studios and clients
• Creative CV - to show off my skills and work
• Website - this is the most important thing to me because it is how most people will look at my work and I am a web designer so it should show off my biggest skill.
• Social media - make sure my Twitter and Behance reflect my branding
• Branding guidelines - so I know what rules to stick to and give an overview to my brand

I think that's everything pretty much covered in terms of what I am going to produce.
